For no other reason than that illusory position of Family Head.
Back then, Duan Jingning was suffering from dehydration. Although the Duan family didn't know much about it, they could tell from his complexion that he wouldn't live long. At that time, only Duan Shan was taking care of his daily needs; even his three biological children weren't as close to him as Duan Shan. Thus, Duan Shan naturally became the candidate for the next Family Head and was viewed by everyone in the Duan family as an outsider, an invader.
However, fate is unpredictable. No one expected that when Duan Jingning visited Xuandu City last year, his dehydration was unexpectedly cured, and he began living more energetically each day.
The choice of the next Family Head in the Duan family was set aside, with no one paying attention to it.
